Amateur radio transmitters do NOT typically exhibit a source Z of 50 ohms at
rated power or any other power. A conjugate match does NOT exist. It cannot play any part in transmitter design. Actual source Z, whatever its value, appears purely by chance AFTER the design has been completed. Even the designer doesn't know what value it might turn out to be. And the amateur radio transmitter user couldn't care two hoots what it is. I thought this had all been settled a few years back. But no! It seems the Old Wives are still plagiarising each other. --- Reg |

This was MUCH too tempting to pass up for another chuckle. The number
of logical inconsistencies within this short gasp begged further illumination: On Wed, 12 May 2004 04:21:19 +0000 (UTC), "Reg Edwards" wrote: Amateur radio transmitters do NOT typically exhibit a source Z of 50 ohms at rated power or any other power. .... Actual source Z, whatever its value, appears purely by chance AFTER the design has been completed. It thus follows there must be SOME Z exhibited, any value of which occurs by happenstance and whose effect, easily determined, is a probabilistic spin of the chambers in a capitalistic russian roulette in the market place. Imagine trying to sell your rigs with this wild inconsistency in quality and performance. 80% of your product would be RMA'd to oblivion and your production line brought to its knees with the loading docks running in reverse. Talk about a mismatch in THAT line - I love it! We have a description of a conceptual death wish embraced with a vengeance. Even the designer doesn't know what value it might turn out to be. And the amateur radio transmitter user couldn't care two hoots what it is. Which, of course has been invalidated by the mere asking of the question that lead to this thread. Boy, self snuffing predictions come fast and furious. It would be so much more gothic if only there were numbers behind this dire brooding. This was better than any Dago Red you happen to be slugging down, Reg. Do you write this stuff while looking through the bottom of the glass? If you simply let yourself go, we could have a tale told by Heathcliff pining for Catherine from the moors. It seems the Old Wives are still plagiarising each other. Yours was just syllables short of being lifted from Emily Brontë. 73's and thanx for the opportunity, I will of course allow you the last comment ;-) Richard Clark, KB7QHC |

Sorry to say I've never read Emily Bronte. My style of writing has been
likened to Neville Shute but I've never read him either. Only seen films. But I do believe fact is stranger than fiction. |
